Behavior of politicians explained - Botox use produces "cognitive blindness"
Are your politicians tone deaf? Exhibiting a "cognitive blindness"? Displaying an apparent inability to read the emotions of others?
...tamping down a person’s emotions seems to interfere with the ability to read emotions in others. Says study leader David Havas: “Botox [also] induces a kind of mild, temporary cognitive blindness to information in the world, social information about the emotions of other people” ..
Well, this goes a long way towards explaining why much of congress, Hollywood, and the media seem shockingly disconnected from reality. I realize they'd all love to blame Bush for their insensate behavior, but folks, it really is the Botox; you need to back away from the makeovers and reclaim your minds. Do it for the children.
